Swift Data is CoreData in a wrapper.

Also, not OP, but I’m glad it’s written in AppKit vs SwiftUI purely; AppKit just feels better on the desktop. I can always “smell” a SwiftUI app just like I can an Electron app.

If the Settings app on current macOS is SwiftUI, then I can too. It's horrible.
Never thought of that. Is that why the Settings app is so slow? If I click on one of the menu items on the left, it takes half a second or more to load the screen.
SwiftUI doesn't help, but each panel is a separate process. The previous version of System Preferences hid the delay by showing an animation, the new one doesn't.
Why is a separate process necessary here?
You don’t want login settings, cursor blink rate settings and random app settings running in the same process
Why? Is there a mechanism by which one of those would be able to interfere with another?
Search is also broken af raycast saves me from going mad
